Not a patient patient
Last week I had my first chemo,
Paclitaxel
, and had a severe allergic reaction 10 seconds in - that was NOT part of the plan! The oncologist wanted them to re-challenge but the nurses refused.

New, freaked out member
Went in for first chemo and it was a nightmare as I had a very severe allergic reaction to the
paclitaxel
. I was supposed to have three hours of that then an hour of carboplatin.

Docetaxel (Taxotere) for Ovarian cancer
I started off with Carboplatin and
Paclitaxel
, but I had a severe allergic reaction to
Paclitaxel
on the first attempt and consequently it was stopped and my oncologist decided to go ahead with just Carboplatin.

worried
I have now had 4 cycles of
Paclitaxel
/Carboplatin with 2 more to go. Thing is, I keep reading about people's cancer returning in different places and wonder if this could happen to me. My consultant says I should be ok but I'm worrying myself silly about this. Any advice, thoughts, comments.

Taxol and sore feet
Hi all, I've just started on
Paclitaxel
and after 3 days, my feet are so sore. The discomfort has started in my lower back, gone to the knees and now my ankles and soles of feet especially are so sore, it's hard to walk around.

Paclitaxel reaction
Had my second round of
Paclitaxel
and Carboplatin on Thu. Unfortunately took a bad reaction to taxel. To go back to consultant to see what I can get next. Disappointed as I felt I was getting somewhere (in my head).

Side effects
Had 4 lots of carboplatin and
paclitaxel
then hysterectomy followed by further two rounds of Chemo. Had Avastin until December when Ca125 levels started to rise rapidly. By February levels were 1400. Showing no symptoms so they left me for 8 weeks. Then bloating started again.

Failed Debulking Surgery
These three sessions of chemo are dose dense Carboplatin/
Paclitaxel
. I have ongoing issues with constipation, probable related to motility issues from all the adhesions and the tumor positions.

Help and advice please? I'm new here!
The chemo regime has been Carboplatin,
Paclitaxel
and Bevacizumab every 3 weeks. She has been at home for 5 weeks now but has been quite poorly throughout with only a couple of days where she felt slightly back to normal although she has tried to stay positive and fight it.

Avastin maintenance dose
I am on arm 3 of the Icon 8b trial and have had weekly
Paclitaxel
and 3 weekly Carboplatin and Avastin. At my onc appointment on Thursday I was told that I had to stay out of the sun as my skin was likely to blister.
